The 2012 Apologetics Conference at Bridgeway
Isn't Christianity really about blind faith and mystery? That's certainly what we hear the world saying through every vehicle of the media. But it turns out to be the furthest thing from the truth.
In this fast-paced conference, some of the leaders in Christian thinking & philosophy show that Christianity is not just about faith—it’s also about knowledge! Join defenders of the faith, J.P. Moreland, Craig Hazen, John Mark Reynolds, Sean McDowell and Mikel Del Rosario for accessible apologetics training and discover practical ways to defend your faith with confidence.
This is our second annual apologetics conference at Bridgeway. Each year we want to bring you speakers who are experts in the field of apologetics, who will present fresh topics each year that are practical yet challenging...helping us grow in our understanding of our faith and how to effectively share it with others.
This conference will help equip you to make your case for Christ in a hostile world. Jesus said, you can "know the truth and the truth will set you free" (John 8:32). Come see how the very best scholarship and thinking in history, philosophy, science, and cultural studies point to the truth of the Christian worldview.
